Flow diagram for the selection of articles included in the systematic review on the associations between dietary factors and GDM. *No desirable exposure (e.g., not reporting on maternal dietary intake but on dietary supplements not in combination with maternal dietary intake, on a biomarker of dietary intake, or on dietary intake reflecting the period after GDM diagnosis). †No desirable outcome (e.g., not reporting GDM but abnormal glucose tolerance or studies with no comparison group comprising women with normal glucose tolerance). ‡Duplicate (i.e., similar study findings reported in multiple articles). §Number of articles and studies reporting on nutrients, foods, and dietary patterns do not add up to the total number of articles and studies included in the systematic review because some reported on a combination of nutrients, foods, and dietary patterns.
